A 50-year-old patient presenting asymptomatically with 20/30 vision was found to have yellow outer retinal lesions bright on autofluorescence. Genetic testing confirmed a mutation in the RDS gene. Often this can simulate Stargardt’s disease which has a mutation in the ABCA4 gene. There is no trea…

Myelinated retinal nerve fiber layer

Myopic degeneration patches of severe retinal and choroidal atrophy, lacquer cracks, a tilted disc and lattice degeneration.

The patient presented with a neurotrophic corneal ulcer and descemetocele. A lamellar keratectomy, corneal patch graft, amniotic membrane were applied. Preop and post-op-month 1, with amniotic membrane dissolved.

A patient with ocular Bartonella henselae infection manifesting as neuroretinitis and branch retinal artery occlusion.

A presumed moth setae was identified in the anterior vitreous cavity of a patient with uveitis following ocular trauma by a flying insect. The multifocal keratitis and vitreous opacities improved following two weeks of high-dose oral prednisone.

Increased cup to disc ratio at > 0.9 with some peripapillary atrophy.

Optic nerve cyst (first image) that over time revealed an optic nerve coloboma (second image).

An elderly patient with anophthalmic socket pain underwent orbital exploration. Intra-operative photo shows a large cystic lesion superior to her orbital implant. Close up photograph of the cyst shows a 1-mm intact cystic lesion filled with gray opaque fluid.

Patient presents with unilateral blurred vision, foreign body sensation and redness. Picture on the right shows gelatinous pinguecula at limbal location 4 clock hour, corneal surface with significant PEE. Picture on the left is HR-OCT that shows thickened and hyperreflective epithelium with abrupt …

A 7-year-old patient with fundus photos showing temporal optic nerve pallor OU. Vision was 20/400 and 20/800. Ganglion cell layer of the patients male first cousin reveals diffuse thinning.

The large staple was able to be surgically removed and was performed with phacoemulsification of the lens.

PFO liquid in the anterior chamber after retinal surgery. This caused some corneal edema and required removal.

Pigmented lesion in the peripapillary area with lacunae suggesting chronicity.

Inferior peripheral corneal thinning due to systemic inflammatory disease. Surgery was with conjunctival recession and amniotic membrane placement.

Peripheral crescentic ulceration and thinning along limbus from 0600 to 1200 with superior neovascularization associated with pain. Treatment was initially with lubrication, antibiotic, systemic steroids, vitamin C, and doxycycline. Ultimately, the patient needed conjunctival recession with AMT pla…

A patient with a history of pseudophakia OS presented with 5 years of low vision and 9 days of pain OD and was found to have light perception only vision and an IOP of 44mmHg OD. She had a granular appearing hypopyon in the anterior chamber corneal edema and a mature cataract. Immunohistological an…

Fundus photo with a nasal peripapillary sub retinal vascular complex surrounded by exudation. OCT with pigment epithelial detachment and associated sub-retinal fluid. ICG angiography makes the diagnosis clear with a hypercyanescent polyp in the choroid.

Figure 1: Fundus photography of patient treated with Iodine plaque, PPV and endolaser due to Pseudoangiomatous retinal glisois that caused a retinal detachment. Figure 2: Bscan of same patient as figure 1 before surgery.

A patient with pseudoxanthoma elasticum presented with decreased vision in both eyes. Initial fundus exam revealed angioid streaks, peripapillary atrophy, comet lesions, and a peau d'orange fundus appearance in both eyes. The patient was lost to follow-up and presented 3 years later with a choroida…
